Educational Background

• BA (Hons), Kingston University, UK

Before joining BIS Hanoi in 2022 as an Art Teacher, I worked for 4 years in schools in South London. I taught as a class teacher and later took on further responsibility as a curriculum leader for Art and Design & Technology. In that time, I set up an artist in schools project and worked with the National Portrait Gallery in the UK to create learning resources.

As a teacher, I enjoy teaching through artworks because I believe they are an endless source of creativity and give different perspectives from which to understand the world. I especially enjoy teaching ceramics, so I feel lucky to be able to use the amazing facilities and kiln here at BIS Hanoi.

In my free time, I enjoy running, reading widely and cultural learning. I also love pangrams and puzzles.
